Two forces explained: Centripetal force is a real inward force keeping objects in circular motion, while centrifugal force is a perceived outward effect from a rotating frame. Why confusion happens: ...

Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? I mean, kinda... it's all relative, right?

6.In uniform circular motion, the centripetal force acting on an object is: (a) Parallel to the motion of the object. (b) Perpendicular to the motion of the object. (c) Opposite to the motion of the ...
